"Ripple Effect" a Pan original

[Hook]

I haven't had any time to record my self but my mother in law wanted a recording of my daughters songs so we had a session yesterday. Pan is now 13 & she wrote this tune last weekend after we went to see the new X-Men movie Days of Future Past. She's quite the writer, if I do say so myself & she's really connecting with the uke. This is her playing & singing live, the uke is direct & she's singing into my mxl 990. I'm a pretty proud dad!

Ripple Effect

written & performed by Pan

We're all alone & scared
Fear is all we have 'round here
even when we're together we're still afraid
the common enemy everyday

Pain is based on death & fear
fear is all we have 'round here
Fear that lives inside of me
that drove me to let the voices change me
voices come from all around
past & future block out the sound
wanna show 'em a better path but I'm lost
Gotta stop the ripple effect at all cost

chorus

Knowing what you have to do
Is the curse that'll kill me & you
trying to kill but lost my aim
aiming for freedom not for shame
future of worries, past of pain
struggling to find my name
no matter what we try or what we do
the ripple effect hurts me & you

chorus

admiring the enemy
the enemy is firing
killing us is killing them
they are able, they can win
win a war that's yet to begin
if they don't hurt us we can't hurt them
try to see through all their labor
the ripple effect works in my favor

chorus
